Studies are released every year documenting the impact and value of after-school programs. At a time when New York State is seeking to improve student achievement, the evidence that after-school programs can play a critical role in improving student outcomes is of particular importance. Here is a sampling of studies and findings.
Charlie Albanetti heads the Communications team at Citizen Action of New York, working out of the Albany office. His day to day tasks include web and new media content, email blasting, communications strategy, and general public relations. Charlie can be reached at calbanetti@citizenactionny.org or 518.465.4600 x 121.
I truly hope that there will be no budget cuts that will affect afterschool programs in my neighborhood. I am a single parent and work full time, therefore I depend heavily on the afterschool program's support. I have served the City of New York for the past 20 years and now I need the support of City Government for my family. Senator Sampson has his office in my neighborhood and I'm sure that he is well aware of the needs of the neighborhood.I implore City Government to save the precious children of the City of New York.
